left handedness in poker players

[andyfox]

I am left-handed. It's a curse in a world built for right-handed people. I have heard that whereas the ratio is now approx. 80-20 RH vs. LH, 500 years ago the figures were reversed and lefties were in the majority. Anybody know if this is true?

Lefties only need reply, me too!

Maybe the right side of the brain holds the Poker zone, after all it's well known that our primate ancestors needed to understand implied pot odds in order to survive in times of bluffing [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

go lefties!

Only real advantage I can see in anything for being left-handed is bowling. No shmucks messing up my oil patterns.

seems like an interesting subject for a poll ??

Probably not that interesting. The results would be skewed, I think, because the lefties would be a lot more inclined to respond.
